Bank of Ireland is urging customers to stay alert to 'Smishing' scams over the festive season, as fraudsters try to exploit consumer behaviour by sending them fraudulent text messages during the busy shopping period. With online shopping and parcel deliveries at peak levels, scammers are sending texts that look like they've been sent by trusted delivery companies, motorway toll services, utility providers, Government agencies or even from the banks themselves. These fraudulent messages often include links to fake websites designed to steal card or online banking details or trying to pressure consumers into paying a delivery or customs charge or update bank account details. Other "smishing" texts will contain a fake phone number that, when called, connects you to a fraudster posing as a representative of the company or from your own bank. Bank of Ireland is also reminding customers that its dedicated fraud support team is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week throughout Christmas and into the New Year. Last year Bank of Ireland's fraud prevention team received over 10,000 calls from customers during the peak holiday period (23 December to 29 December), with 550 calls received on Christmas day alone. As part of Bank of Ireland's four-point plan to prevent fraud, it has called for the introduction of legislation to allow an SMS scam filter to be deployed in Ireland. This filter would help stop SMS fraud attempts before they happen. Ireland is currently out of step with other English-speaking countries in not having an SMS scam filter in place. This filter would operate like the spam filters that are applied to email inboxes by detecting and blocking harmful links or content. Key advice for consumers: Do not click on links or reply to text messages looking for payment. Remember toll operators, banks, delivery companies, utility providers and Government agencies will never send a text linking to a website that asks for your online banking details or full card details.Check the identity of the sender. Call the company in question using their legitimate phone number. Nicola Sadlier, Head of Fraud, Bank of Ireland said: "Unfortunately fraudsters see the Christmas holidays as an opportunity to exploit the consumer rush to get all the festive shopping done, and at this time of the year Bank of Ireland's fraud team always sees a wide range of "smishing" scams impersonating well-known companies. "Our advice to consumers remains the same, keep your guard up and treat every unsolicited call, text, or email as a potential fraud attempt. Our dedicated fraud team is working around the clock, even over Christmas and into the New Year, to protect and support our customers. If something feels suspicious, trust your instincts and contact us straight away. "Ireland is out of step with other English-speaking countries in not having an SMS scam filter, leaving Irish consumers more exposed to fraud attempts. We would strongly support the introduction of an SMS scam filter in Ireland, which requires legislation, as it would help block many of these fake text messages." Bank of Ireland customers can call the Fraud Team 24/7 on the Freephone line 1800 946 764. See more stories here.

We start with a pair of stories about everyone's least favorite subject, SMS spam, one involving an organized crime ring and the other vulnerable everyday infrastructure.
